Facts
Gutenberg offset machines in this family are 220 V. GL1-6245: single-station single colour, 220 V 3 kW. GL1-6245/SN: single-station dual colour with numbering/perforating finisher, 220 V 3 kW.

AM.CO.ZA does not supply offset inks or paper, and does not make or supply plates (PS and CTP plates are the usual types). Clients buy inks/plates from offset-printing suppliers; paper is often a separate paper merchant.
Speed depends on artwork size and ink feed: about 7000 sheets/hour on small artwork, about 4000 on large. Quoted performance is 5000 sheets/hour.
Offset is established technology; many buyers already know how to run it and do not need training.
